1990 Porsche 944 Cabriolet Turbo

Description

The triple-black style of this 1990 Porsche 944 Cabriolet Turbo fits it quite well. It gives this car a meaner and more performance-oriented appearance that's quite right on a drop-top made to hit the road and be enjoyed.

The Porsche 944 Cabriolet is considered a bit of a rarity on the American market with less than 2500 ever sold (Porsche typically sells more 911s today in just one fiscal quarter.) So real fans already tend to take notice when one is around. But more than just rarity, we like this because the full theme seems to be about maximizing the enthusiast-driven spirit at the heart of the Porsche tradition. The black paint is clean and driver-ready, with the right amount of gloss to help show off the well-fitting panels. And the S2 series had sleeker features and larger flared fenders for a sporty style. There are terrific details, like the well-fitting convertible top and upgraded 18-inch Radius Alloy wheels. The full package is attractive, but nothing about this car wants to be presented as "fancy" because that would make you nervous about driving it. But we also appreciate how the value price for something this rare means it's easy to budget for any improvement or personalization you may want to do.

The black interior joins the paint and roof to deliver a desirable triple-black style. It's properly loaded with the best features like power windows, power locks, cruise control, dual airbags, and an upgraded AM/FM/CD stereo with USB input to plug in your smartphone. There are even provisions for R134a air conditioning (it will need servicing to blow cold again.) And we like the cool details like the racing seats, white-faced gauges, and boost gauge that remind you this one is extra special.

One of the coolest parts of this car is in the engine bay. We have a receipt file documenting a comprehensive upgrade to the 2.5-liter turbo motor in 2008. Original 944 Turbo Cabriolets are one of the rarest versions of the series. So rather than give you a car that feels like pure unobtanium, this has a value price and a fresher motor. That makes for an awesome driving package. The 944's lightweight nature makes this special turbo car quite fun. Plus, it was engineered to be a terrific handling machine with the motor canted over at an angle for a lower center of gravity, and the rear-mounted five-speed transmission means that the car has a near 50/50 weight distribution. Add in a terrific fully independent sports suspension, four-wheel power disc brakes, and grippy Pirelli tires, and you realize this drop-top is a blast to drive anytime.

This Porsche 944 Cabriolet Turbo delivers rarity, fun, and value. That's why you know this triple-black custom is irresistible. Call now!
